Worth every cent mate. Almost always out looking gorgeous...

Don't have any pamphos. She is very dossile and will just teleport into her cave when stressed.

Wow, what a gorgeous spider! Does the blue colouration only show under direct, bright light or is it still visible under ambient lighting?

If the last molt was recent, ambient light will be enough. Fades into looking black over time without strong light though.

Good to know, as I do plan on getting one someday, if I can ever find one available in this country.

Teleport you say? Are they really that fast as adults?

Well, I have her in a 30 by 30(cm) cube. So I don't know how fast they are when running distances. The few times when she was in spider-standby-mode and I scared her, she was quick to bolt the few centimetres into her hide. Mostly she is more of a chilled girl and will just slowly back away when she's annoyed.
